Leslie from Connecticut
When I saw a new "McNally's" book at the store, I grabbed it and brought it home. That was when I discovered that it was written by Vincent Lardo with the permission of Mr. Sanders estate. They picked a winner as far as I am concerned. Had I not read the name of the author prior to reading the book, I would not have thought anyone other than Lawrence Sanders had written it. His passing saddens me, however, I am thrilled to see Archie McNally and his crew live on.

When I picked up my copy of McNally's Dilemma and saw another author's name besides the beloved Lawrence Sanders I was skeptical, but optimistic. I am only halfway through this book, but oh my goodness! Do I ever miss Mr. Sanders! I'm sure Mr. Lardo is an excellent author, buy Archy and his parents are such elegant characters, and under the current treatment, Mrs. M has become instead of just the very-well functioning but admittedly lovable ditz almost incoherent. And Prescott McNally has been turned almost into something almost ugly. Connie, Binky, Uri, Jamie, and even Hobo....where did you go? There are imposters in your place.


Marty
I loved the latest Archy McNally romp, even though Mr. Sanders died several years ago. I think Mr. Lardo captured the style of the McNally series, and I can't wait for the next one due to be released this summer. But why wasn't there a bullet hole in the shirt?


Lynne
I was deeply saddened to learn of the death of Lawrence Sanders, who has been a favorite author of mine since I discovered his books at the age of fifteen. I was even more saddened to learn that more books will continue to be published under his name. It doesn't seem fair that other people are benefiting from his genius for story-telling. I will not read any Vincent Lardo books unless they are published under his own name and not under Lawrence Sanders.


Colette Beaton
This is great. I was so saddened by the death of Lawrence Sanders as I have read his books for many years. It is so great that his estate has hired someone to continue the McNally legacy. What would we do without Archy. Thanks


Carson Reed
Gee, did Larry write this book? Sure seems like it. So then, who is Vincent Lardo? What's going on here?

When I discovered the fraud being perpetrated by the publisher on an unsuspecting readership, I returned this book for a full refund.


Chrystine Tedeschi
I'm shocked that someone else can write under Lawrence Sander's name. It almost seems fraudulent that they put his name on top of the cover of the book. I read the book and could tell that it wasn't Sanders style. It just didn't come up to par in any way. I'm quite saddened by the passing of Sanders as I have no more of his books to read and didn't know he had died.
